Just saw this on Ebay. A Javelin AND a Gold Optima.

Considering I've seen Javelins go for over $300 and the gold chassis alone in the $150 range, this really isn't a bad price (bad for me but still LOL)

Just wanted to share if someone was interested.

The auction isn't for both buggies, just the Javelin. The gold Optima is in another auction and the seller is ridiculously asking for $3,500 like besty22 said. Why stop there? Why not just ask for a million. :lol:

HAHAHA serves me right for not reading the details as well.

Yeah, those prices are stupid high. That Javelin isn't even in the best condition out of the javelins I've seen sell on Ebay recently for a lot less money.
